P4C

Today I did P4C witch stands for philosophy for children.

The p4c I did today was about if you should lie or not.

Here are some situations.

Would you lie if you had a cookie before dinner time and your mother asked if you had had a cookie before dinner?

Would you lie to get someone you hate into trouble?

Would you lie to get someone out of trouble?

In certain situations, I guess it is okay to tell a lie.

Crackle crackle

This morning I have crackle painted Drago. Soon I will be touching up the copper. When you apply the crackle paint you put two colors on. First you put the gold on then you put the black on while the gold is still wet then it
cracks.
